When Ms. Mary came before the judge, he looked at her 【4】 (serious) and said that she was too old to drive a car, and that the reason 【5】 she had not stopped at red light was most probably that her eyes had become weak with old age, so she had simply not seen it.
When the judge had finished what he was saying, Ms. Mary opened the big handbag she was carrying and took out her sewing. Without saying a word, she 【6】 (choose) a needle with a very small eye, and threaded it at the first time.
When she had successfully done this, she took the thread out of the needle again and handed 【7】 the needle and thread to the judge, saying, “Now it is 【8】 (you) turn. I suppose you can drive a car well, and you have no doubts about your eyesight.”

【解析】本文为叙事故事。文章讲述了一名80多岁的老奶奶司机身上发生的小故事。
【1】考查同位语从句。此处作fact的同位语从句，且引导词在从句中不作任何成分，也没有实际意义。故填that。
【2】考查介词搭配。此处表“因为驾驶错误被惩罚”，for“因为”。故填for。
【3】考查动词形式。介词without之后，应使用动词的-ing形式。故填stopping。
【4】考查词性转化。此处修饰动词词组look at，应使用副词形式，意为“严肃地看着”。故填seriously。
【5】考查定语从句。此处为定语从句，先行词是the reason，关系词在从句中作原因状语，应使用关系副词why。故填why。
【6】考查动词时态。此处描述的是过去的动作，应使用一般过去时。故填chose。
【7】考查固定搭配。both A and B，此处意指“把针和线都递给了法官”。故填both。
【8】考查代词。be one's turn“轮到某人了”，句意：现在，轮到你了。故填your。
【9】考查词性转化。分析句子成分可知，此处应为动词“成功”的过去分词，与had构成完成时。故填succeeded。
【10】考查被动语态。根据her record remained unbroken可知，针对Mary女士的诉讼被撤销了。此处描述的是发生在过去的事情，表示被动，应使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was dismissed。
